Restoring Data

On APMA Linux systems, your home directory, /users/<your-username> , is backed up frequently with read-only filesystem snapshots. Users can access these snapshots to restore data that may have been accidentally overwritten or deleted.

1. Change directory to your snapshot folder:

   cd ~/.snapshot

2. Browse the snapshots with ls and choose the timestamped directory you are interested in.

3. Locate the data you would like to restore and copy it to the preferred destination.
